What's on Your Table?

At the suggestion of my eldest daughter, I ordered "The Future of Food" from Netflix. I had actually seen this before and was just as outraged this time as I was the first. This is an "eye-opening documentary which sheds light on the shadowy relationship between agriculture, big business and government."

I also highly recommend watching the additional featured interviews with Dr. Michael Hansen, a scientist who works for The Consumer Policy Institute, a part of Consumers Union, who not only shed some light on the politics of GMO's but also addressed the lie that we must genetically modify our food to feed the world; and Dr. Arpad Pusztai, a scientist who actually did research on genetically modified potatoes and their effects on rats. His conclusion got him fired.

Allergies are also mentioned in this film which hit close to home for me. My grandson has been tested for allergies because of a severe case of Eczema and none were found. Do they have tests for allergic reactions to GMO's?? Is it possible that his skin is screaming "DANGER, WILL ROBINSON"?

Please take time to watch this, take action in your own life and pass it on to everyone you care about. To keep up with this important topic, go to Seeds of Deception.
